Since the evo 3D came out, 4.3 inch screens have gotten slightly higher resolutions - like the 720p 4.3 inch in the HTC 8x..
Would it be possible to swap out the screen? Are htc display connectors all the same? Has anyone tried this?

Hi there,
I've come from a Touch HD to a TP2 to this HTC Hero and just noticed the screen resolution.
Just a question for people using these already, how sharp is the picture quality? Is it a good quality, clear and precise screen? Any feedback on it? Example pictures of it etc?

Cheers mate, but these aren't real pictures of the phone, just computer generated ones by HTC. Ones I am looking for are actual pictures of users screens to see the clarity
You gotta realize something: The diamond / Touch Pro / Touch HD and _STILL_ the Touch Pro2 and Diamond2 are leading the pack when it comes to dot-pitch (amount of pixels cramped into an inch ).
3.2" with a 320x480 resolution is still 'normal to pretty good' these days.
That HTC managed to put 640x480 into 2.6" a year ago is still pretty much unmatched.
Just compare it to any G1 / Magic / iPhone around you. A lot of people have no complaints about it as far as I know. And the smaller resolution means the UI will probably be a bit more responsive / more smooth.
But yes, if you're used to the sharpness of HTC latest high-end WinMo devices (or the Xperia) this will be a step back. But I didn't even think twice about the resolution. I've often thought 640x480 was huge overkill on the screen of the Diamond.
for me the only issue is going from 3.8 to 3.2, resolution not so much
there's a 7 part hands on with Hero on youtube and i'm impressed, gotta have it as soon as possible :/

yeah i saw a preproduction model boot up (wasnt allowed to see anything else ) but it looked nice. It's very iphone-esque in screen quality...i'd say the palm pre tops them all just, the colours were sooo vibrant!
Coming from Diamond (480x640) to a G1, I am a bit disappointed in the resolution for pics and vids (pr0n viewing). But for the normal usage, there is no problem at all, because things aren't as tiny & busy in Android as WinMo anyway, so the user interface itself doesn't need a lot of pixels.
Hey all, I'm getting a Hero soon and I want to know if there's a way to change the resolution of the Hero?
I now own a HTC Diamond2 which is almost 1:1 to the Hero hardware and it uses a 480 x 800 resolution.
And now since Android 2.0 is out it supports bigger resolutions... so the question is - is it possible to change Hero's 320 x 480 resolution to 480 x 800?
Hello,
I just bought a new VW beetle, but my friend has a Porsche. Is there any way to make my VW run 300kph like the Porsche does?
OP, I hope this is a joke. For your sake, and humanity's.
no problem, just put the diamond on top of the hero and push really hard.
you can also use your fullhd tv to get fullhd on the hero, but you need really high pressure then...
lol this made my day...

****ing hell guys... A little harsh? He was only asking a simple question.
The answer is no, unfortunately the screen itself is different to the Diamonds and won't support the higher resolution.

Thanks for the answer. I just thought it's up to the software/OS...
the dimond is not 480x800
it is 480x640
But he wrote Diamond 2, so 480*800 is right.
Just FYI, LCD displays (and all flat displays regardless of type) cannot magically add resolution to themselves.
An LCD screen is a grid of lights. With a 480x800 LCD, there is a grid of 384,000 extremely small light bulbs, arranged in a grid 480 lights wide and 800 lights high. If you give the screen anything more or less than a 480x800 picture, it will convert the picture into 480x800, losing detail in the process.
In televisions, a 720p television (1280x720) can still accept a 1080p picture (1920x1080); it has hardware that will convert the image to the right resolution. If you bought a 1080p television instead, it would display the picture as intended.
I hope that, now you know how LCDs work, that you know how much of an idiot you made yourself look. No offence. We all have to laugh at ourselves sometimes.
I have a cheap android tablet, Ainol Novo 7 Advanced(some other cheap chinese tablets have the same issue), which has a screen with non square pixels. The resolution is 5x3(800x480) but the screen is 16x9. This results everything being squished in landscape and stretched in portrait.
Does anyone who knows how android rendering works know of a way to acount for the physical pixels not being square at the system level to fix this. Maybe tell android to render 854x480 and then squish it into 800x480.
Thanks for help you can offer.
Odd
I have the same issue with rena3 android tablet, any ideas?
No, I'm stumped. We need someone who knows how the Android graphics sub system works.
*Bump*
No one knows how to fix this?
I have the same problem with the Bmorn V11.
Other than that a fantastic tablet for the money!
Any idea on this? It's a shame that they still sell tablet which has this issue. Everything looks distorted.
Correct me if i'm wrong but our Atrix has a TFD LCD. This screen is so bad. Before the Atrix i had a Milestone and the screen was so much better it had a TFT LCD.
So my question is: is there an TFT LCD screen to atrix? Because if I'm right there is not much technology differences between them
It is a TFT LCD.
There is a big difference between similar products from different manufacturers (of internal LCD not phone)
Our device pales against AMOLED displays, especially in direct sunlight. But the AMOLED display is different on different devices too.

This site indicates that they have a TFD
compare-cellphones.org/Motorola-ATRIX-4G-vs-Motorola-DEFY
And they also claim that the Defy screen has a better disply and as I mentioned I had a Milestone and it's screen had better colors and picture quality.
The Atrix screen has better PPI and higher resolution so if they have the same type LCD, then Atrix must be better than Defy and Milestone but I have both and as I said Defy/ Milestone screen is better.
I thought maybe I damage the screen when unlocking bootloader and Changing roms but my friend bought new Atrix and he has the same screen. I would appreciate your help in solving this problem. Many thanks.

This may sound stupid, but have you checked the brightness settings? As I've never compared the two devices you're talking about, I don't know what to tell you.
I have compared it to my brothers s2 & s3 and friends iPhone and can say those displays are better, but as far as usability goes, I'm completely happy with the Atrix display.
Perhaps post a picture of the two devices side by side?

Hi there, I was wondering what the resolution the DNA uses for its icons. Considering, it's a 440ppi screen, I was wondering if you guys were having any icon blurriness due to the fact that developers aren't updating the icons for the high ppi screen.
Thanks!
